Live From Lincoln Center

Encountering "Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel"

Clip: Season 38 Episode 5 | 9m 26s

Despite its popular appeal, "Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel" can be a strange and unsettling experience, veering from harsh to comic, and from bleak to romantic. As members of the cast point out, it’s really the music itself that holds the story together. Live From Lincoln Center asked them what it’s been like to work with the New York Philharmonic, bringing this musical so vividly to life.
